Re: RFS: steam-powered

[Jon Dowland <lists@alcopop.org>]

Just a few suggestions:

1) I'd add 'set -u' and 'set -e' to the top of
   steam-powered: I do this for every shell script I write.
   This might require some of the script to be re-written
   to cope with unbound variables, etc.

2) line 39:
   eval set -- "$(getopt --quiet --alternative
        --longoptions="help,version" --options="" -- "$@")"$

   What does eval do here? As far as I can see, you can
   omit it.

Otherwise I like it!

I am working on a generic data installer package which
takes non-free data and generates .debs which satisfy
dependencies. The first, domain-specific rough-cut of this
is the doom-package package. I have been offline for a
while and have yet to commit my latest work on this, I will
do so over the weekend. You might find it interesting.
